Roll motion stimuli: sensory conflict, perceptual weighting and motion sickness
1TNO Human Factors Research Institute, Soesterberg, The Netherlands. DeGraaf@tm.tno.nl
Abstract:
In an experiment with 17 subjects, interactions of visual roll motion stimuli and vestibular body tilt stimuli were examined in determining the subjective vertical. Interindividual differences in weighting the visual information were observed, but in general, visual and vestibular responses added in setting the vertical. Despite the conflicting sensory information, motion sickness was not reported apart from one subject on one single occasion. This is in conflict with the sensory mismatch theory on motion sickness, but in agreement with the subjective vertical conflict theory.
